Okay guys...
Enough of it, not need to give such an image of the ReactOS project.

Victor, you've already been said several times (and not from Olaf only) that 
some of your bug reports were lacking consistency, details, interest, whatever. 
Or even some of your answers (let's think about bug #5657).
So now, it may be understandable that such a bug report which is not that good 
produces such reaction.

Talking for me, and for me only, I would be assigned this bug, I would close it 
immediately. Not enough material, nothing really concrete. Typically, that's 
kind of stuff it's better to discuss with developers instead of writing a bug 
report. It's a really specific issue, without any debug output, and with source 
available. Be sure developer will do their own tests to get more information 
and the report won't be that useful.
The idea of a bug report is to point the issue to the developers without *that 
much* investigations. Here, all the stuff is to be done. That's why a bug 
report seems not to be appropriate in the way it doesn't bring anything more 
than just: "Oops, it doesn't work".

Finally, try to keep the mailing-list out of personal conflicts and childish 
stuff. It's not its purpose. Just insulting each other won't help the project 
in any way. If you know you are tempted to overreact, then, take a deep breath, 
go outside and finally write answer when you are back and cool.
We are currently in Google Summer of Code period for the ReactOS project. Many 
new comers eyes are watching us and I definitely don't think that's a good idea 
to offer them such show.
Show instead how both you are involved in the project by posting nice mails, 
doing great job, offering beers to students (and eventually helping them).

Regards,
P. Schweitzer
